Tomorrow, I get to spend the day in the madness that is the District Democratic Party Convention. I'm getting increasingly upset with the two Democratic candidates over their annoying bickering and name-calling and flat-out lies about their experiences.
I have actually found myself agreeing more and more with McCain on some isues, specifically the proposals to reward irresponsible homebuyers for getting in over their heads with mortgages they could not afford. Don't get me wrong, the mortgage bankers were equally irresponsible, but my progressive tendencies don't give the home-buyers a free ride on my coattails, either. But, that notwithstanding, I could never, ever vote for McCain for hundreds of reasons, not the least of which is the fact that the warmongering bastard isn't smart enough to separate his Vietnam psycholgical experiences from the realties of our illegal attack on a country that had not attacked us. He equates the two so much that he is utterly unable to deal with reality.
Enough of the political ranting.
We got our new electric stovetop, so we no longer have to worry about our old stovetop starting a fire and burning the house down. I'm actually very impressed with the new electric cooktop, but I'd still rather have gas. One day, when I grow up and get a real job that pays real money, maybe...
We're going to Chicago in early-mid-May. Yay! We'll meet one of my favorite sisters-in-law and the man with whom she shares an illicit life, living in sin, in Boston. They will be there from Saturday until Monday. We go up Thursday and leave Tuesday morning. The hotel we're staying in doesn't have internet access in the rooms...only in the lobby. I may break my internet addiction over those five days...or I may break instead several Starbucks stores after they close and check my email.
